Karen Griffiths

British painter Karen Griffiths lives in the French Alps, with her studio overlooking the alpine town of Morzine. Since leaving university, Brighton became home for 9 years painting in her beachfront studio, until moving to France 20 years ago.

When she arrived in Morzine to ski, the British artist fell in love with it. “I came for three nights and stayed for three weeks”. Fascinated by the ever-changing seasons, she particularly loves winter. The silence and the white cloak that softens contours inspire her delicate palette of colours, a mix of abstraction and impressionism, blurred landscapes, carved by ski tracks, filiform ski lifts or a few ghostly spruce trees. Pink-grey, fuchsia yellow, or night blue, the mountains seem solitary and introspective… 

New works, inspired by her numerous solitary ski- touring trips, now hang alongside intimate portraits of children and old people with intense expressions, taken from her travel sketches. Whether faces or landscapes, her works always suggest an emotion or an intimate experience.

Karen also draws inspiration from outdoor sports, ski touring in winter and trail running in summer, so much so that in her studio, the skis and backpacks are inseparable from the paintbrushes and easels.

For Chalet Art Store we curated a selection of her original portrait oil paintings, winter landscape artworks and limited edition fine art prints.
